After reading so many of the reviews on here.... I can see that some of these folks just have a…read morevendetta against certain employees at this place. People who have never left a review before creating accounts just to badmouth someone. My family has been playing here for years so I speak from experience. Here are the facts: 1. They are trying to accommodate everyone... Therefore they have installed a card reader system to automate some of the process and make it easy for you to keep your points and you're spending money in one place. They do keep a certain amount of machines on quarters as well for those who prefer otherwise. I find this to be a very good compromise. 2. They have some very good prizes in this arcade. Obviously, the better prizes are going to be won by saving up your coupons over time... but then again, there are exceptions. This week I watched as a lady came in and wanted to win an NBA jersey. She sat down next to me at a poker machine and was unfamiliar... I showed her how to play five at a time to maximize the jackpot and, within 5 minutes she hit a jackpot high enough to win the jersey. Their coupons never expire so you can save them up and trade them in at anytime. Also, if they don't have it, they will get it for you. You just have to ask at the counter. They are extremely accommodating. 3. They work very hard in here... Everyone has a job... The floor people do not work behind the food counter... The redemption people do not work out on the floors... They all have specific functions that they are trained very well for. It can get hectic... but they honestly do to try to take care of everybody. There are certain times when they get very busy because it is the end of a tournament or there is a special free drawing going on at that moment... The place is huge so if you don't see someone in the front of the store... They also have people stationed in the middle and in the rear of the store as well as out by the cranes. 4. Somebody on here posted that the bathrooms are always filthy. I know this to be absolutely false. They clean these regularly throughout the day. This is 100% FACT! They have three bathrooms that are kept clean... Very clean. I see the workers who go in and clean them. Most of the employees who work here have that easy-going attitude and do whatever it takes to make things work. There is no way you could work there without being easy-going because the number of nit wits you have to deal with on a daily basis. They really do want you to have a good experience. 5. Cranes: You can't complain because you spent $5 trying to win a $500 item and didn't get it. Some cranes are easier than others. All machines ...at all arcades...use random number generators and will determine when a machine will be eligible to "pay out". A certain amount of money has to have been put into a machine (machines are set looser or tighter) before the claws tighten up more, before the stacker will stack to the top etc. etc. etc. That's just how these things work. It's a bit of skill and a bit of timing. Just chill out and have a good time. If you win points inside the casino area they will allow you to use these points purchase any of the stuffed animals or any of the other items in the cranes. All you have to do is ask. My favorite thing to do is just sit and watch some of the families with younger children having a blast in here. They are laughing and playing together... That makes my day. This is a family place. If you wander in drunk on a Saturday night and cause any problem, they are going to quickly show you the door. It's a safe, fun place to chill and have a good time. Enjoy it for what it is. I'm not a paid spokes person for this place...I've just enjoyed it for many years. I hope you will too.

I agree with the person who says it is dirty and smells very bad of mildew. And I don't get the no pictures rule. The reason I don't understand is I had known Randy for years and, and we were in there and he thought I was taking a picture when I was texting my pet sitter. He came up to me telling me to stop and he acted like he didn't believe me. Anyway, later I saw a Facebook post someone put on there about taking pictures. I added to that asked him why he didn't allow it because people adding photos of the old machines to their reviews could get him more business, and next thing you know I was blocked. You don't need to go somewhere for fun and be followed around by spies and getting an asthma attack from the mold. Save your money.

We live in Oregon and often visit the Fascination parlor in Seaside, where my wife's family has…read moreplayed the game for at least four generations. When we were planning a visit to my home state, New Jersey, we wanted to go to Wildwood to play Fascination. It is two hours from where we were staying, but we had never been there. So, we looked up the hours, planned our trip, and got there when it was supposed to be open - after 4pm on a Thursday. The place was closed. We lost a whole day of our vacation trying to get to this place, and from what we could see looking in from the outside, the arcade looks more like a storage unit. A total and complete mess. After this unfortunate, eye opening experience, I honestly don't have many kind words for the people who own and run this place. The nicest thing I can say is, they've got a lot of work to do.
